Trains & Planes

A special sister in law of mine will be welcoming a new baby boy to their family very soon.  About a month back we had a baby shower to help her prepare for this upcoming arrival.  I had the honour of bringing the sweets for this event and had some fun celebrating with blue.  Some pictures of the vanilla and chocolate cupcakes

October 4 for 1 - Cupcake Toppers

4 friends all celebrate there birthday in the later half of october! So its an annual event to celebrate it all in one night! Cupcakes were ordered for the event (Redvelvet, Vanilla & Chocolate) and I thought it would be fun to personalize them to the celebration! I found a great printable from smittenblogdesigh.com that I put on top!  They have tons of great stuff! Happy birthday girls!

Jakob Turns 1!

One of the fun things about being in the cupcakes / cake business is getting to make your nephews (which is all I have in this case) birthdays a little more colourful.  Jakob turned one just a few days after my own newborn son (Ashton) was born and so I didnt get a chance to bake the cupcakes and present Jacob with them myself.  I did however manage to make a few colourful cupcake toppers yet for his Mom to use for the celebration!  Just a few pics... 

Happy Birthday Jakob and I promise to make a big fancy cake next year!

Every One Loves the Pink Ribbons!

I think there is something about this pink ribbon that touches everyone!  So naturally it was fun and an honour to help someone out with a fundraiser.  These meaningful ribbbons topped our classic vanilla cupcakes for a special awareness event.  I hope we get the chance to help out again soon!

Ready, Set, & GO!

Its always fun to be able to make a special cake for a special person! My nephew Aaron was turning 3 and hes got a liking for the movie(s) CARS and especially Lightning Macqueen (sp?).  So to the drawing board I went.  Of course I was about 36 weeks pregnant at this point and the cake has to be brought up north to where he was camping.  These two things did limit my ability to go to over board with this theme.  We had fun with it still and I am pretty sure Aaron enjoyed his special cake too! Happy Birthday Aaron!

A Barrel of Monkeys!

Happy Birthday Dylan! Dylan has a liking for Julius the monkey by Paul Frank and so had a special request for those on top of his cupcakes for his recent birthday.  I am always nervous when it comes to replicating a "character" because there is so much room to be off the mark...  

However Julius simple design made these cupcake toppers a lot of fun! 

Happy Birthday Dylan! I hope you enjoyed Julius!
